Food Therapy



I am a food lover and I strongly believe in Food Therapy. Physically as well as psychologically, our body and mind functions better when the stomach Is full. The first thing which comes to my mind, when I am stressed or depressed is food. I always carry chocolates with me just in case I or someone may need it. It is also scientifically proved food can work wonders. Even if it is not proved, I would anyway stuck to my theory. Being in a stressful marketing Job, Food is known to create wonders, gap bridges, heal wounds, clear minds and it also does a lot of other things. However, Even though I am a food addict, I have a really sensitive digestive system. I have never managed to understand or decipher what affects my system. Is it some hidden spice in the food or Is it gluttony or Is it some unknown reason. I have no clue. Still it does not stop me from gorging on food. One of my favorite foods is Fast food. Be it fiery food hot chicken and choco peanut bolt from KFC or Mcegg and Icecream coke in Mcdonald’s. Fast food works well for food therapy. Still every time I bite into a burger or chicken, My inner voice questions me about the freshness of the food and the oil. I always pray to save me from a stomach bug till the next morning. Not that they are not safe or hygiene , still the fear would not go away. My friend recommended McCain Snacks. I was little skeptical at first. Packed foods meant preservatives and food coloring. But the review I got from my friends said otherwise.
My friend was going through serious emotional stress and I tried pacifying her through various means. I then decided to the age old therapy of Food. I bought Mccain Veggie Burgers, A crispy coated vegetable patties made of a fine blend of fresh vegetables, mashed potatoes, spices and dipped in crispy bread crumbs and McCain Smiles, Mashed potatoes with happy faces. I wished they would bring back the smile in her face. I wanted to surprise her with a meal. I am not a great cook. Yet I took great efforts to prepare the meal for her. After munching through the meal, McCain proved really it’s worth. After some calories and lot of talk.  McCain brought back the smile in her face. Sometimes few calories in your body is better than a few pounds in your heart.

Rock to Sculpture

Every person we meet creates an impact on us. The way the impact works is quite surprising. Sometimes the impact created by a stranger is more than the impact by a close friend. I always consider life as a block of coal or a big piece of rock. The journey from Coal to diamond or Rock to sculpture takes a lot of time and can also be painful. It does not happen with a single person or with a single incidence. The conversation process is continuous and can happen till our last breath. We get better and better with age and experience. I have never managed to understand when a person reaches his best. Maybe the level is unattainable. Still changes, both ups and downs happen throughout our lives. I remember an innocent hyper girl who wore sensitivity on her sleeve. The smallest spark was enough to set her on fire. She was on the extreme of emotions. The emotions can range from Happiness, sorrow, loneliness and anger. Still the emotions controlled her and stole her sleep many nights. ...

Digital India - A shortcut to Safer India

Digital India – A vision by the government, An expectation by the youth, A mystery for the public What does digital India mean? This question which pops into everyone’s mind and heart when they hear the term. It may also seem as an unattainable fruit to some. This is true to some extent. But this will definitely create a great change in the life of every individual. More than anything, I see this as stepping stone towards a safer nation. Safe nation is slowly becoming a distant dream. Some blame the women. Some blame the men. But maybe both and to some extent the nation as a whole is also responsible. Men harass women because they think they are helpless and vulnerable. Women allow this because they think men are stronger. Indians are not heartless enough to allow a crime happen right in front of their nose. Sometimes they become worried about the consequences of helping others. Thanks to the laws and corruption. I have always wondered what would be the hope and thought of a ...

Foot Prints on Time

Is age just a number? I wonder within myself Or it could have been aloud I can no longer tell My ears are sharp, but my mind is preoccupied I try recalling the past But it seems like a distant memory Everything is a blur of multiple emotions I wish I could see through them At least relive a few; forget many But life does not work that way I feel weary in my bones I wish I could rest But the journey is still not over I hope it is not long as before Almost half is what I can do My knees tremble as I gaze behind My eyesight dims as the distance increases I have come a long way Through different phases and even eras I look at the age Is it just a number? Did I ask myself this before? Is my work done? Can I do anything else? The questions keep adding. Was it memorable? It was interesting Was I happy? I forgot to tick the box. Am I mature? Only time will tell The age might not be just a number anymore It is a reminder to let go It is a reminder to cherish the small things It is a reminder to...
